Looks like my premiums are about the same as for 2010.

Looks like "Obamacare" caused my employer (large multi-national) to
squeeze out the HMO and probably keep the PPO price in check.
Figures, since they're paying 50% and have negotiating clout.

Jim - hehe.

Count yourself as very lucky. Those of us that work at much smaller
companies saw increases in the 150 - 200% range. Efforts to reel
that
in included concessions like doubling of deductibles and max out-of-
pockets amounts that range in the $2000-3000 ballpark.

Obamacare is VERY expensive for the majority of Americans.

Jack - not laughing

I haven't seen my 2011 benefits package yet nor has my wife seen hers.

I work for a company of 40,000 employees and my wife works for a
company
of 170,000 employees. Over the past 5 years or so my health insurance
has cost about $100 ever two weeks where my wife's has cost about $200
per week. The plans are very similar but the costs are extremely
different. My cost is $2600 per year and my wife's is $10,400 per
year.
Obviously we go with my insurance.

Those are large enough companies that they can get good deals from the
insurance companies. I work for a company of 75 employees. When we
went shopping for insurance (after the renewal came in with such a
large hike) several insurance companies told us they were no longer
even offering policies to companies under 100 employees.

Your health insurance premiums have what, precisely, to do with
rec.boats?

You're boatless, so why are you here?


Sorry, Jackoff...I'm not boatless. Our new boat is sitting on a cradle at
the dealership, and is bought and paid for. We agreed to hold off on final
delivery until after the Annapolis boat show. We're already had a "wet
delivery," and are simply awaiting installation of some electronics gear,
such as radar and chartplotter, and some minor incidentals.

Now, back to Bertie...he's boatless and has been for a long, long
time...why is he here?

As predicted by some here, the details are starting to leak out.


If this boat is real, expect pictures within a week. It might just turn out to be another Lobsta Boat, though.


Announcing when a boat is to be "delivered" is not the same as "leaking
out" details, is it? If he takes delivery on October 21st, you still
won't know anything about the boat. Your buddy Harry said no details
would be posted here. I'd bet on it.


Depends on how you define details.
He's already mentioned some outfitting details. Watch for much more to come.
